Lin Yi looked at the thunder dragon for another moment. The lightning arcs playing between its scales continued their continuous discharge, the creature's traversal pace unchanged by the conversation happening in the space adjacent to its path. He looked at the distance between his current position and the thunder dragon's nearest point.
Then he activated Boundless Step.
The skill assembled all movement techniques into a single layered execution. Phantom Void Step's spatial distortion. Heaven Step's Spirit-converted momentum. Chain Void Step's consecutive activation. The combined output carried him not toward the thunder dragon but behind Cang Yutian in an instant, the spatial transition producing its signature non-vibration arrival at the destination point.
He materialized directly behind the watcher.
Cang Yutian's armor moved.
